I have only gained 10lbs but that is 10 too much! am seeking a support group right now because I am never going back to 400lbs!! NEVER!! I am actually on my fitness pal and its on my phone but I just don't use it like I should. Thank you everybody I needed to read this today

I was 1 year post-op December 8 and I graze a lot!! I have never liked protein shakes and I eat stuff that got me over 400lbs again. Does anyone have any tips that I can use to curb my appetite and get away from these awful carbs? Thanks, Jessica

Hello all!! My name is Jessica and I was sleeved on December 8, 2011 and I have lost a little over 100lbs. My a1c is almost normal and my PCOS is getting better. I'm so glad I found this forum so I learn about everyone else's experience. I started my journey at 412 and today I am 304!!

Mine is msboo79

Hello everyone I live in Birmingham and I was sleeved December 8, 2011 and I started at 412. I am now 315...I was 305 back in June. I'm starting to gain some of my weight back but I think I need to start walking to speed up my weightloss. I drink over the amount of water and get in my protein. My goal is 200 so I hope I can make it:)

My surgeon thought that may be the issue but its something the surgeon did. I did have muscle weakness and problems getting up and down stairs but its getting better. I am very good with getting my protein in and my Vitamins. Its from a mistake that happened during my gallbladder surgery

First I want to thank you all for reading and the comments. I want to answer a few questions...when my gallbladder stopped working it started as a postnasal sinus drip along with really bad reflux and the foamies. I couldn't poop either and then I couldn't keep anything down for longer than 2 minutes. Now it may be different for others. I had my blood work done several times and my b12 is actually pretty good and my surgeon wanted to make sure that it wasn't a defeciency. So I'm good on the vitamins. I am having an MRI of my back since I had surgery on it in 2005. I also have to have a EMG done because they think a nerve was cut and there may be some nerve damage. As a matter of fact when I went to my follow up appt and asked him why I was numb, he said it was probably a nerve. When I first tried to get a MRI they said I had a clamp still in me and that the MRI machine would pull it out but my neurologists got my surgical report and it said I didn't so we are dealing with a major cover up. But I will continue to move on and stay POSITIVE! Thank you all again:) Jessica

I was sleeved on December 8, 2011 and I must say it has been rocky. Not even 8 weeks after my gallbladder had to come out. I thought I was ok until I started having trouble walking and my stomach, legs,and thighs went completly numb. My lady parts are numb as well as my breast so I had to get a attorney because they think something went wrong during the surgery. But, on a POSITIVE note I came from 412 to 311 in less tha 6 months. I'm praying that my walking goes back to 100% so I can finally hi8t the gym. I have a MRI scheduled fot Monday so we can figure out what this guy did..thanks for reading:)

I have never heard of that but I can't wait to eat them again...

I know the waiting sucks big time but it will go by super fast on that pre-op diet lol!! The days flew by for me and before you know it you will be approved:)

Congrats!! December Sleevers ROCK!!!!!

I have cheated......I boil eggs and ate them the first night of my liquid diet. That carnation instant breakfast is the devil.....I'm so done with that mess

You know I had those same feelings and up until they tell you that you are approved that feeling just stays with you. Just know that God is in control and I will say a special prayer for your speedy approval!
